Helpful Tips
• Transmitter Location: Since
your goal is to broadcast throughout
your whole house or ofce it is
best to place the transmitter in a
room closest to the center of the
building.
• Broadcast Distance: is affected
by types of building material,
terrain and environment.
• The HIGHER you can place
the transmitter the farther you
will broadcast. For this reason
we suggest you do not set it up in
the basement but if possible, place
the transmitter in a top oor center
room.
• Computer Users: If you are
using a computer to supply audio
or power, keep the transmitter
as far from the computer as
possible. Computers produce
radio interference.
• Audio In: For best results make
sure the audio volume going
into the transmitter is as loud as
possible without distortion. While
listening to the audio on a radio
receiving from the transmitter turn
up the volume until the sound
begins to be distorted and then
turn the volume down a little bit.
• Microphone:
You may purchase a mic from
WholeHouseFMTransmitter.com.
(NOTE: Mic will be cut off when audio cable
is plugged in)
.
• Attention Satellite Radio Users:
If your satellite receiver has a built
in FM transmitter, you must be sure
to turn it OFF so it will not produce
interference with the Whole House
FM Transmitter.
• Power Adapters: Only the
power adapters provided are to
be used with the transmitter. Any
other power adapter may damage
the transmitter. Do not use the
power adapters outdoors or in wet
conditions.
• Antenna: The single wire
antenna (4) should not be used
to hang or lift the transmitter. The
antenna should be fully extended
and positioned in a vertical position
for best results. The higher and
longer an antenna is the better the
transmission will be.
